I was speaking at a pharmacy conference on December 7th, 2015. I had some time before my presentation and I called Gulf Coast Aviation to see if I could take a tour of New Orleans in a C-172. I called at 0900 and by 1000 I was doing the paper, submitting my certificates and was flying over the city of New Orleans by 1030. I flew with Joe Coleman CFII and had a fantastic time. He was fantastic as an instructor and tour guide at 1500 feet MSL. As an instructor at KARB, I appreciate great instructors that are professional, equipment that is clean and office staff, Mary who was kind, warm and friendly. If you are at KNEW, go to Gulf Coast Aviation. You will love every minute of your flight and stay in the Big Easy.

Flightline First was a perfect FBO. We had some radio troubles and coordinated with the Avionics shop to get it repaired during our stay in New Orleans. Small guys welcome!

FLEW IN FOR MARDI GRAS AND TIED DOWN WITH FLIGHTLINE FIRST. ONE OF THE BEST LOCALLY OWNED FBO'S I HAVE BEEN TO. EVEN IN THIS BUSY TIME THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL, SECURED THE PLANE AND A TAXI FOR US QUICKLY. EXCELLENT FACILITIES THAT THE BIG BOYS WOULD BE JEALOUS OF. FUEL IS THE CHEAPEST ON THE FIELD, THEY WAVE THE FACILITY CHARGE FOR ANY FUEL PURCHASE AND TIE DOWNS ARE $10/NIGHT. AIRPORT IS MUCH CLOSER TO DOWNTOWN THAN LOUIS ARMSTRONG. BE AWARE OF THE OPERATING HOURS OF THE TOWER.

I have been based here @ Flightline First for the past few years. This is an excellent FBO, with excellent service.
"VETTDVR" had an extremely unusual occurrence. Line attendants may not be the brightest bulbs on the Christmas tree. Many of FLF's line guys are pilots-in-training, starting as many of us once did, and are very attentive.
Be advised that the repair service(s) and the radio shop are separate businesses sharing the same hangar. The radio shop is good. If one needs mechanical repairs, ask for "Rocco".
The FBO manager is "Brayton", a very helpful fellow.
Any AOPA member needing more info can contact me through f-b.

Flew into KNEW last week. Parked plane in front of Flightline First FBO, set the brakes because the ramp people did not bring chocks and winds were 13knots on the tail gusting. I went to the ramp guy and with no hello or welcome sir to airport, He asked were the brakes on,, I said yes. (the plane would have rolled if the brakes weren't on),, He immediately responded go take them off or we will hire a mechanic to release pressure and bill you for the service. Very rude and sarcastic. If you fly into KNEW I highly recommend Landmark for FBO service until Flightline First can sort out their customer relations with the line people. .

We were taken very good care of. Arrived late afternoon, and the FBO called a cab to take us to the French Quarter: 15 mintes max. We changed our departure plans a couple of times, and they had the plane ready, refuled and waiting just when we wanted it.

AeroPremier took good care of me with smiling, helpful service. Fair prices (had O2 bottle filled) with fuel and 3 niughts tie-down. Had car ready and all in all a very good experience.

Visited KNEW a few weeks ago. Some of the FBO's are still in portable buildings but the place is doing fine. Great view of downtown New Orleans when you land or take off to the South.
